For millennia, humans have been telling stories to make sense of the world around them. Between the heroes of myth, creatures of fairy tales, and remedies of folklore, there’s a large amount of stories about medicine and the human body which may or may not have some truth to them.

Anatomyth is a podcast about these stories, and that potential grain of medical truth. It’s equal parts storytelling, medical evidence, and in some cases, downright conjecture.

Listen in every month for all these and a sprinkling of what’s meant to be humour.
